Description

本発明は発光ダイオード光源モジュールに関し、特に、ストリップ式の側面方向に発光する発光ダイオード光源モジュールに関するものである。   The present invention relates to a light-emitting diode light source module, and more particularly to a light-emitting diode light source module that emits light in a strip-type side surface direction.

発光ダイオード(light emitting diode、LED)は消費電力が小さい、効率が高い、寿命が長いなどの特性があり、また水銀汚染などの環境保護問題がなく、各種平面ディスプレイのバックライト光源として応用され、優れた色彩表現を得ることができるため、発光ダイオードのディスプレイにおける応用が近年非常に重視され、研究が進められている。   Light emitting diodes (LEDs) have characteristics such as low power consumption, high efficiency, and long life, and are free from environmental protection problems such as mercury pollution, and are applied as backlight light sources for various flat displays. Since excellent color expression can be obtained, the application of light-emitting diodes in displays has been greatly emphasized in recent years, and research is being advanced.

バックライトモジュールの主な形態は、光源位置から述べると、側面照射式と直下式の構造に分けることができる。従来の液晶ディスプレイ応用製品は主にノートブック型コンピュータや液晶モニタなどがあるが、そのバックライトモジュールの特性需要は主に軽量、小型、薄型という点にあり、側面照射式の構造はこの需要を満たすことができる。しかしながら、液晶テレビ用の超大型バックライト光源の開発において、考慮が必要なのは、十分な表示輝度、広い視野角、鮮明な映像コントラスト、比較的長い使用寿命を備えていなければならないという点であり、上述の考慮に鑑みて、直下式の構造が大型液晶ディスプレイ技術の主流として用いられている。   The main form of the backlight module can be divided into a side illumination type structure and a direct type structure in terms of the light source position. Conventional LCD application products mainly include notebook computers and LCD monitors, but the demand for the characteristics of backlight modules is mainly light, small, and thin. Can be satisfied. However, in the development of an ultra-large backlight light source for LCD TVs, it is necessary to consider that it must have sufficient display brightness, wide viewing angle, clear image contrast, and a relatively long service life. In view of the above considerations, direct structures are used as the mainstream in large liquid crystal display technology.

図1Aに示すように、米国特許第6679621号は発光ダイオードに側面光源を発生させるレンズの構造を提示しており、複数のレンズを装備した発光ダイオードを排列して液晶ディスプレイのバックライト光源とし、従来のCCFLバックライトモジュールを代替している。この特許が提示するレンズは、漏斗形状の反射面、第1屈折面、第2屈折面を含む。前記反射面は発光ダイオード正面方向の光軸に対し一定角度傾斜しており、発光ダイオード光源が発射する光線の反射に用いられる。前記第1屈折面は発光ダイオード正面方向の光軸に対し斜めに角度がつけられ、反射面が反射する光線の反射に用いられる。前記第2屈折面は以凸曲線または鋸歯状に第1屈折面から発光ダイオード座体まで延伸される。そのうち、前記第1屈折面が前記反射面と前記第2屈折面を連結している。   As shown in FIG. 1A, US Pat. No. 6,679,621 presents a structure of a lens that generates a side light source in a light emitting diode, and arranges the light emitting diodes equipped with a plurality of lenses as a backlight light source of a liquid crystal display. It replaces the conventional CCFL backlight module. The lens presented by this patent includes a funnel-shaped reflective surface, a first refractive surface, and a second refractive surface. The reflecting surface is inclined at a certain angle with respect to the optical axis in the front direction of the light emitting diode, and is used for reflecting light rays emitted from the light emitting diode light source. The first refracting surface is inclined at an angle with respect to the optical axis in the front direction of the light emitting diode, and is used to reflect light rays reflected by the reflecting surface. The second refracting surface is extended from the first refracting surface to the light emitting diode seat in a convex curve or a sawtooth shape. Among them, the first refracting surface connects the reflecting surface and the second refracting surface.

図1Aに示すように、このレンズの形状は製造において難度が高く、精確に達成することが容易ではないことを踏まえ、このように小型の発光ダイオード光源上にこれほど複雑なレンズの構造を製造することは非常に難度が高い。このほか、側面照射式(side emitting)バックライトモジュールを得るためには、各発光ダイオードすべてに上述の構造が複雑なレンズを設置する必要があり、このように手間のかかるプロセスと高額なコストは大量生産に不利である。また、一部の応用においては、別途防水装置を設置して完成品の信頼性を保障する必要がある。   As shown in FIG. 1A, it is difficult to manufacture the shape of this lens, and it is not easy to achieve precisely. Thus, such a complicated lens structure is manufactured on a small light-emitting diode light source. It is very difficult to do. In addition, in order to obtain a side-emitting backlight module, it is necessary to install a lens having a complicated structure as described above for each light emitting diode. It is disadvantageous for mass production. In some applications, it is necessary to install a waterproof device separately to ensure the reliability of the finished product.

これに鑑みて、新しい側面照射装置の構造を開発し、側面照射式の発光ダイオード光源モジュールの量産という目標を達すると共に、導光形式を改善し、製造コストを抑え、市場ニーズを満たす必要がある。   In view of this, it is necessary to develop a new side illumination device structure, reach the goal of mass production of side-illuminated light-emitting diode light source modules, improve the light guide format, reduce manufacturing costs, and meet market needs .

米国特許第6679621号明細書US Pat. No. 6,679,621

本発明の目的は、経済的かつ効果的に側面照射光源を得る発光ダイオード光源モジュールを提供することにある。   The objective of this invention is providing the light emitting diode light source module which obtains a side irradiation light source economically and effectively.

本発明の発光ダイオード光源モジュールは、アレイ式発光部材とストリップ式導光構造体を含む。そのうち、前記アレイ式発光部材は複数の正面方向に発光する発光ダイオード(light emitting diode、LED)光源とし、上述の複数の発光ダイオード光源はアレイ式に排列される。また、前記ストリップ式導光構造体は前記アレイ式発光部材の両側に設置され、前記ストリップ式導光構造体は第1曲面と第2曲面を含み、前記第1曲面と前記第2曲面はそれぞれアレイ式発光部材の両側からアレイ式発光部材の中央箇所に向かって凹陥しており、かつアレイ式発光部材の中央箇所上方で相互に連接される。そのうち、前記第1曲面と前記第2曲面は連接箇所において一定角度でアレイ式発光部材の正面方向の光軸のある平面と接する。正面方向の光軸の定義は発光ダイオードのある平面に垂直な方向である。   The light emitting diode light source module of the present invention includes an array type light emitting member and a strip type light guide structure. Among them, the array type light emitting member is a light emitting diode (LED) light source that emits light in a plurality of front directions, and the plurality of light emitting diode light sources are arranged in an array type. The strip-type light guide structure is disposed on both sides of the array-type light emitting member, the strip-type light guide structure includes a first curved surface and a second curved surface, and the first curved surface and the second curved surface are respectively The array type light emitting member is recessed from both sides toward the central portion of the array type light emitting member, and is connected to each other above the central portion of the array type light emitting member. Among them, the first curved surface and the second curved surface are in contact with a plane having an optical axis in the front direction of the array-type light emitting member at a fixed angle at a connection location. The definition of the optical axis in the front direction is a direction perpendicular to a plane with the light emitting diode.

この発光ダイオード光源モジュールは、照明装置に応用して間接光線を効果的に得ると共に、点光源の発光面積を発光ダイオード光源モジュールの処理で拡大し、これによりグレアの確率を低下させることができる。広告ディスプレイ装置に応用すれば、均一な面光源を効果的に得ることができ、ディスプレイの水準を高めることができる。本発明の発光ダイオード光源モジュールは、液晶ディスプレイのバックライトモジュールに応用することもできる。   This light-emitting diode light source module can be applied to a lighting device to effectively obtain indirect rays, and the light-emitting area of the point light source can be expanded by the processing of the light-emitting diode light source module, thereby reducing the probability of glare. If applied to an advertising display device, a uniform surface light source can be effectively obtained, and the level of display can be increased. The light emitting diode light source module of the present invention can also be applied to a backlight module of a liquid crystal display.

このほか、本発明はストリップ式導光構造体230において、各導光表面の光線に対するガイド設計にいくつかの組み合わせを提供する。ただし、導光表面の光線に対するガイドの組み合わせ設計は、本発明が言及する次の3種類に限られない。第1類は、第1曲面231と第2曲面232に反射特性を有する材質をめっきし、光線が第1曲面231と第2曲面232の反射または全反射を経た後、それぞれ相対する両側に向かって射出される側面方向の光線を形成させ、さらに幾何導光表面233、234により側面方向の光線をガイドし、図2Iに点線で示すような光線のルートを形成させることができる。この第1類が形成する側面方向の光源において、その光線強度の対応角度分布図は、図2L中の曲線が示すように、正面方向の光軸(0°角の箇所)に対して約60°〜70°角の箇所の光の強度が最強である。第2類は、第1曲面231または第2曲面232のいずれか一方に反射特性を有する材質をめっきし、反射特性を有さない第1曲面231または第2曲面232近くの幾何導光表面に、反射特性を有する材質をめっきする。図2E中の点線で示す光路のように、第1曲面231に向かって射出される光線が反射または全反射されて側面方向の光線となり、側面方向の光線が幾何導光表面233によりガイドされ、また、幾何導光表面234に向かって射出される光線が反射または全反射されて正面方向の光線となり、第2曲面232により光線がガイドされ、正面方向の光線が補償される。第3類は、第1曲面231または第2曲面232のいずれか一方に反射特性を有する材質をめっきし、図2F中の点線で示す光路のように、第1曲面231に向かって射出された光線が反射または全反射されて側面方向の光線となり、幾何導光表面234に向かって射出された光線が屈折されて他方の側に向かう側面方向の光線となる。   In addition, the present invention provides several combinations of guide designs for light beams on each light guide surface in the strip-type light guide structure 230.
